After a long, cold winter this year, we’re more than ready to welcome spring into the kitchen.

Truthfully, the very best spring vegetables aren’t yet available (though they’re coming soon!), but we’re so excited about the change of season, we’ve selected a few great recipes that use available fresh produce and a few quick-frozen veggies to help bridge the gap between the slushy days now and sunny days that are yet to come.

Try these easy, breezy meals from our One-Click Recipes area to enjoy a luscious taste of spring — even before the temperature rises.
